Do you live off campus or on? If you live on campus then it might be that way, not sure about any special arrangements that are made with your apartment complex and the school, but that could be why they hold some back.

Did you fill out a FAFSA yet? You can get a good amount of grants through them (grants you don't have to pay back).

Sign the lease at the place you want. Pay the security deposit. When they ask just say your waiting for loans. If you give them the option they will say no. Dont give them the option, put them in the position where they have to wait. Trust me they wont take you to court.

aside from the fact that i dont even have the $800 sec dep, i dont wanna risk screwing up my credit on a gamble like that

Landlords cant get into your credit, they would have to go through courts prior to that happening. A judge would tell them simply that you are going to pay your just waiting for your loans. Landlords are scumbags they know it everyone knows it. Unless you school has a bad rep for screwing them, Ive never really seen a problem waiting for loans to come in.

they will now take over your life and force you to give up your first born before you get a chance to pay back half.

They arent that evil. They would settle for your virgin ass.
